Joyful Hearts Women’s Ministry
Joyful Hearts is open to all women in the church who share our common desire to connect with each other and share our blessings by serving the church and the community.
We meet the second Saturday of each month at 10:00 a.m., with a break from meetings during the summer months.
Throughout the year, we collect and donate items needed by local organizations who provide vital services in our community. Ongoing collections include crocheted lap covers for a local hospice, assorted toiletries for Albuquerque Healthcare for the Homeless, and household items for Lutheran Family Services. Additional activities are scheduled throughout the year to promote fellowship within our group and within the congregation.
